GENERAL INSTALLATION APPROACH:

1) Decide upon system configuration and options that will be installed

(i.e.:whatcomponents, VCP,Tuner, RF Modulator/external amp, re-

mote headphones, DVD, etc.).

2) Review all manuals to become familiar with electrical requirements

and hook ups.

3) Decide upon mounting locations of all components and method of

mounting.

4) Prep the vehicle by removing any interior trim necessary to gain ac-

cess to vehicle's wiring as well as all areas where interconnecting

wire harnesses will need to be located. If any access holes need to

be cut into the vehicle (headliner, other trim components etc.), this

should be done now as well.

D. Installation and Powering

5) Route the wiring harnesses throughout the vehicle as necessary.

(Refer to the Wiring Diagrams on page 10 of this manual as well as

the wiring instructions for the individual components and accessory

options being installed). Be sure that all wiring is protected from

sharpedges and is routed in suchamannerthat it will not bepinched

when all components and interior trim are fully installed. Be sure to

leaveenoughslackinthewiringateachcomponenttoallowworking

room.

Note: If the vehicle is equipped with Side CurtainAir Bags, do not

run wires in the vacinity of the Side CurtainAir Bags.

6) Remove allA/V system components from their packaging and place

them loosely in the vehicle at their respective locations.

7) Connect all components together (electrically) and verify proper op-

eration of all system functions. Note: This is best done BEFORE

components have been permanently mounted.

8) Afterverifying properoperationof thesystem,proceed tomounteach

of the components.

9) Whenall components are mounted, recheck the entiresystem again

to ensure that no wiring was pinched or connected improperly dur-

ingfinalinstallation.

Note: The MMD100 video system is only intended for an overhead,

dropdown installation.Itisnot intendedforseat back oranyother

type of mounting. The hinging mechanism is designed for hori-

zontal, drop down use only.

VEHICLE PREPARATION:

1) Locate an accessory power source (+12v when key is in the ACC.

and run positions, and 0v when key is off). Generally, this wire can

be found at the ignition switch or fuse-box.

2) The mounting method and location will vary from vehicle to vehicle,

so this manual will only focus on the installation of the video monitor

and related console accessories.

3) Generally,thebestlocationforthevideomonitoriswherethevehicle's

factory dome light is installed. The monitor should be located in

such a manner that it can be comfortably viewed by rear seat pas-

sengers. NEVERINSTALLTHEMONITORINAPLACEWITHINTHE

DRIVER'S VIEW. THIS IS NOT ONLY DANGEROUS, BUT IT IS

ALSOILLEGAL.

4) Once the mounting location of the monitor has been determined,

there may be additional preparation work necessary, depending on

the vehicle structure and installation method. Some of the steps

that may be required are:

A) Removal of the vehicle's dome light.

B) The headliner may need to be trimmed.
